How can I print 3x5 Index cards from my HP M283cdw printer?  The top feeder will not take the cards - and the bottom tray will not accept that size.  I formatted the cards and am trying to print a WORD doc

Thanks, Sandy...but the problem doesn't lie in the software set up.  Rather, the HP printer set up.  That's why i posted here and not on a Microsoft forum.  The manual feeder on the printer does not seem to acceopt 3"x5" index cards being fed horizontally - only vertically.  The work around was that I printed on 4"x 6" index cards instead.of 3x5.
